To Catch a Hare: A Chinese Daughter Reflects on Happiness, Spiritual Beliefs and Universal Wisdom

Adeline Yen Mah interweaves her own experiences with her views on Chinese thought and wisdom to create an illuminating and highly personal guide for Western readers.

Adeline Yen Mah was born in Shanghai and through the conversations and wisdom of her grandfather and aunt, learnt a great deal of traditional Chinese thought, history and religion. Through her father's second marriage to a Eurasian woman, and their subsequent move to Hong Kong, she learnt more about the Chinese attitudes to business and to family, and the strength of the Chinese in exile.

Since living in London and California,Yen Mah has studied Chinese thought, looking at both the strengths and weaknesses which it gives those who follow it. This book takes us on a journey through the Chinese language, religions, history, using both Chinese proverbs and her own experiences, to bring an understanding of the richness of China and the ways that we can take and use some of the wisdom for ourselves in the West.
